Five key focused areas for YFY future development:

  1. Renewable energy and energy management

  2. Industry 4.1 and upstream/ downstream industrial ecosystems

  3. Continuous development of the circular economy

  4. The saccharide economy and development of new materials

  5. Investment in new innovation business

YFY continues to transform core business, develop new business, improve product mix, and strengthen operations advantages to thrive in the ever changing environment. In addition to the stable dividend income from SinoPac, investment income using equity method (such as E Ink) will further improve portfolio performance.
